I was really excited to design with these new walnut wood & resin pieces this week- they make it easy to add a quick pop of color to any design & I love the color combinations! For this design I made the focal stand out a bit more by attaching these gold focal links around it.

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Sunstone Chips
  • African Brass Rice
  • African Trade Beads in Vanilla
  • Sunstone Faceted Round 4mm
  • Gold Chain
  • Gold 24 gauge wire
  • Beading Wire
  • Gold Crimps
  • Super Glue
  • Lobster Clasp
  • Gold 3mm Jump Rings
  • Gold Crystal Faceted Rondelle 3mm
  • Gold Crescent Focal Links
  • Walnut Wood Resin Focal Coin

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1

Using the wire, attach the two crescent pieces together with two 3mm crystal rondelles in the middle.

Step 2

Place a few drops of glue on top of the wood resin focal & press the top of the crescent link onto it.

Step 3

Once it's dried, slide wire through the hole of the focal & use round nose pliers to make a loop on top.

Step 4

Slide the beads onto a 14" piece of beading wire in the order shown in the picture.

Step 5

Attach to an 8" piece of chain with the crimp tubes. Make bead links with the Sunstone Faceted 4mm rounds and attach to the chain.
